Especially in terms of high-end combat power, the Shancha Family and the Principality of Lane combined only have three low-level powerhouses in the Sanctuary.
Looking at the enemy, there is one legend (although he may not necessarily participate in the battle), two high-ranking saints, and one low-ranking saint.
He will definitely be hung up and beaten!
Moreover, there is no strong fortress like Delphi between the canton of Neuer and the royal domain.
Even if the two companies join forces, there is no hope of victory.
Of course, Kate knew these two points very well. She crossed her arms and smiled:
"Sean has actually thought about what you said.
And in addition to these two points, Sean also considered the third factor that is not conducive to the alliance, that is, if our two families form an alliance, the Shancha family will be suspected of splitting the country, resulting in a huge disadvantage in public opinion."
Grand Duke Xintis clapped his hands and said suddenly: "I really didn't expect this, but this is very important and should really be taken seriously!"
Although the Camellia family now rules one area, it still officially belongs to the Kingdom of Anjou and is subject to the jurisdiction of the royal family.
If they unite with the Lions to fight against the Angevin royal family, what kind of thing is this?
Doesn't this clearly tell the residents of the Anjou Kingdom that "the country has been divided and they are rebels"?
If the royal family deliberately guides public opinion, civil strife may break out in their territory before the royal family can send troops!
Grand Duke Xintis's face began to look ugly.
The situation is much more severe than imagined.
.
Kate noticed her father's expression, but she continued:
"I also participated in the post-war meeting organized by Sean. At the meeting, Sean gave solutions to these three problems, that is -"
Speaking of this, she raised her voice.
Xintis also looked at her immediately, but he held his breath and did not interrupt.
After Kate whetted her father's appetite, she smiled and said, "That is to change the leading organization and attract more countries to join."
"Change the leading organization?"
Grand Duke Sintis was a little confused, and he couldn't keep up with Kate's thoughts.
Kate added: "The leading organization of this future agreement is not the Camellia Family, nor the Principality of Lane, but - Silver Pine Spire!
Moreover, this agreement is not an alliance between the two parties, but a "World Peace Agreement". This agreement will also invite the Sunflower Principality, the Dwarf Kingdom and the Elf Kingdom to join.
This is why I came to you. I am not only responsible for the communication between the Camellia Family and the Principality of Lane, but I am also a member of Silver Pine Spire!
On behalf of Silverpine Spire, I invite you to join this pact."
"I understand, I understand completely!" Xiao Hei seemed to be enlightened and sat down on the big leather chair.
It turns out that’s what Sean had in mind!
The whole plan looks like this:
First, let Silverpine Spire formulate a World Peace Accord.
This is completely in line with the interests of Silverpine Spire. After all, the original intention of Silverpine Spire was to "prevent any form of invasion war and save more magician seeds."
Then, the Principality of Lane and the Camellia Family joined this agreement.
Benefits of joining this agreement:
First, the blood feud between the two major forces does not matter anymore. After all, it is just a peace agreement, not a real alliance. But they can still unite to deal with the invasion of the royal family;
Second, the huge force of Silver Pine Spire will be on their side. You must know that they have two strong men from the Sanctuary. The master of Silver Pine Spire is even as strong as the peak of the Sanctuary!
Third, the Shancha family does not have to worry about rumors of "treason and secession". Because they advocate peace, they may even gain support from the people;
Fourth, you can win over the three countries of Sunflower Principality, Elf Kingdom, and Dwarf Kingdom to join.
The Sunflower Principality has been a bitter royal family for a long time. The dwarves love peace and the elves seem to love peace.
But it doesn't matter. With such a huge force gathered, does the royal family still dare to invade the Shancha family's territory?
The answer is definitely no!
This way the Camellia family will be safe!
.
Thinking of this, Grand Duke Xintis immediately nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice: "Kate, if our ancestors cannot come back, I promise to join this peace agreement!"
"That's good." Kate breathed a sigh of relief:
"But Sean also said that the biggest beneficiary of joining this peace agreement is the Shancha family, and the Principality of Lane has not gained much benefit.
So Sean put forward two conditions, and you must agree before the Principality of Lane will join the peace agreement."
"Conditions? What conditions?" Grand Duke Xintis frowned.
"The first condition is to open trade between the two countries without adding trade restrictions, and at least restore it to the level before the war."
"This..." Grand Duke Xintis thought about it.
After thinking about it, he found that continuing to close trade would not be beneficial to both parties. Lumiester was lucky, Noel's economy was about to collapse, and opening up foreign trade could at least bring some relief.
So he answered directly: "I can agree to this condition."
"The second condition." Kate stretched out two slender fingers: "The 300,000 gold coins that the two saints lost to Sean in the bet must be paid within a month."
"This..." Grand Duke Xintis's face suddenly turned bitter:
"Kate, you also know that our Noyer State's economy has been hit hard and is basically on the verge of collapse. We really cannot afford to pay for these 300,000 gold coins.
Why don't you discuss it with Sean, and next time, if we make a bet next time, we will definitely pay him back the 300,000 gold coins we owe him!"
At the same time, he also scolded the two saints countless times in his heart.
Are these two full of food? Why are they making a bet?
Making a bet with a teenager? And losing the bet? It’s so embarrassing!
But he only dared to say this in his heart.
Kate sighed slightly:
"Actually, Sean had already thought that you would default on the loan, so he changed a condition.
That means you don’t have to give him 300,000 gold coins, but he wants the jurisdiction of Wind’s Breath City and Oran City for five years. During these five years, these two cities will be temporarily under the management of the Principality of Lane.”
"Jurisdiction of two cities?"
Grand Duke Xintis' heart "thumped" and his pupils shrank slightly.
It turns out that this is Sean’s purpose!
But why does Sean want jurisdiction over two cities that have been reduced to rubble?
Oran City and Wind's Breath City are currently not a source of wealth, but a burden! He was still having a headache yesterday about settling the refugees here.
Then Grand Duke Xintis cast a questioning look at his daughter.
Kate's expression still didn't change much, and she replied:
"Shaun did this to atone for the sins committed by Ryan's army.
Since Ryan's army destroyed the homes of the residents of the two cities, Sean has an obligation to help the residents of the two cities rebuild.
And he also made a promise that the two cities would not need a penny of subsidies from the Shancha family within five years and restore the economy to half of its pre-war level.
Within five years, Sean will not station troops in two cities.
Chapter completed!
